After several months of temporary closure, all European Tour Destinations Resorts have now re-opened and are ready to welcome their guests to the 'new normal'. Each of these Destinations have implemented strict measures and protocols according to country requirements.

Physical distancing is at the forefront everywhere while extensive staff training has been undertaken to ensure health and safety guidelines are introduced and followed properly, both by staff and guests.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, ETD resorts are reporting strong levels of property enquiries and good sales volumes.

Sandra Ruttle from ETD says: "This is leading us to be cautiously optimistic for the golf real estate market as properties located on our resorts have shown steady appreciation over the past couple of years and continue to perform well based on sustained demand, contained supply and robust compliance with COVID-19 guidelines.

The resurgence in demand during this time, particularly in the more established golf markets, is not only due to the attractiveness of resort properties - as buyers are more focused on lifestyle, space and working remotely - but international property owners have been isolating within their properties, causing them to view them as more than just a second home. The lifestyle, ambience and the COVID-19 focused support structures are all enabling resort residents to feel more at ease than if they were residing at their primary residence."

The continuous efforts by ETD network resorts to providing a safe environment matters just as much for the resorts' clients as they do for the residents.

Property owners on ETD resorts can be assured of high-quality services, safety and security, and that applies to potential buyers as well, who want to view properties in the safest way. This is made possible through strict procedures operated by the sales teams, virtual viewings and more flexibility when reserving a property, all of which gives confidence and trust to residents, both current and future.
